McKINNEY ACT PROGRAMS IN NONMETRO AREAS: HOW FAR DO THEY REACH? © Housing Assistance Council, 1995 Permission is granted ONLY to nonprofit
community-based organizations to reproduce and/or adapt this document, and only for their own use.
As of fall 1994, federal housing programs targeted specifically to rural areas are administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture through the Rural Housing and Community Development Service (at the national level) and Rural Economic and Community Development (at the state level). At the time these case studies were performed in 1992, these programs were administered by the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA). Each state FmHA/RECD office determines areas within its state whose residents are eligible for FmHA/RECD housing assistance. Generally, eligible areas consist of open country, communities with up to 10,000 residents that are rural in character, and communities with up to 20,000 residents that are rural in character and are outside MSAs.
